Managing Reliability Test Failures During
the Product Development Process
This discussion will focus on aspects of reliability
testing in the development process, when those tests occur and how
the organization responds when there are failures. There will be
discussion of using the PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act) cycle to address
the failures, find the root cause and verify an effective fix. All
this must be done within the context of the product development
cycle during the concept, prototype and validation phases of the
project.
By having an effective problem solving method imbedded in the
development process, reliability targets can be reached, designs
can be modified or changed with less impact on the project in terms of cost
and timing and a lessons learned library for the next
product development cycle can be compiled.
Key Words: Plan, Do, Check
Act Cycle (PDCA); Design Verification Plan and Report (DVP&R); Test
Incident Report (TIR); Reliability Target Setting, Use Profiles,
Structured Development Process
